Nonparametric Asymptotic Distributions of Pianka's and MacArthur-Levins Measures

This article studies the asymptotic behaviors of nonparametric estimators of two overlapping measures, namely Pianka's and MacArthur-Levins measures. The plug-in principle and the method of kernel density estimation are used to estimate such measures. The limiting theory of the functional of stochastic processes is used to study limiting behaviors of these estimators. It is shown that both limiting distributions are normal under suitable assumptions. The results are obtained in more general conditions on density functions and their kernel estimators. These conditions are suitable to deal with various applications. A small simulation study is also conducted to support the theoretical findings. Finally, a real data set has been analyzed for illustrative purposes.

Reduction principle for functionals of strong-weak dependent vector random fields

We prove the reduction principle for asymptotics of functionals of vector random fields with weakly and strongly dependent components. These functionals can be used to construct new classes of random fields with skewed and heavy-tailed distributions. Contrary to the case of scalar long-range dependent random fields, it is shown that the asymptotic behaviour of such functionals is not necessarily determined by the terms at their Hermite rank. The results are illustrated by an application to the first Minkowski functional of the Student random fields. Some simulation studies based on the theoretical findings are also presented.

Spherically Restricted Random Hyperbolic Diffusion

This paper investigates solutions of hyperbolic diffusion equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with random initial conditions. The solutions are given as spatial-temporal random fields. Their restrictions to the unit sphere $S^2$ are studied. All assumptions are formulated in terms of the angular power spectrum or the spectral measure of the random initial conditions. Approximations to the exact solutions are given. Upper bounds for the mean-square convergence rates of the approximation fields are obtained. The smoothness properties of the exact solution and its approximation are also investigated. It is demonstrated that the Hölder-type continuity of the solution depends on the decay of the angular power spectrum. Conditions on the spectral measure of initial conditions that guarantee short or long-range dependence of the solutions are given. Numerical studies are presented to verify the theoretical findings.

Reduction principle for functionals of vector random fields

We prove a version of the reduction principle for functionals of vector long-range dependent random fields. The components of the fields may have different long-range dependent behaviours. The results are illustrated by an application to the first Minkowski functional of the Fisher-Snedecor random fields. Simulation studies confirm the obtained theoretical results and suggest some new problems.
